Aliyah Quote #6: Discard the waste!

Eretz Yisrael was created first, and then all the world. Hashem waters Eretz Yisrael directly, and the rest of the world through an intermediary. Eretz Yisrael drinks rainwater and the rest of the world takes a remnant. Eretz Yisrael drinks first, and then the rest of the world. - It is like a man kneading cheese; he takes the edible part, and discards the waste. (Ta'anis 10)
